Maritime Risk: Maritime Piracy

• Annual Cost: $9-12 billion (Oceans Beyond Piracy, 2010)
• 2011 Statistics: (Source: IMB-ICC):

–Incidents Reported for Somalia: Total Incidents: 194 Total Hijackings:24 Total Hostages: 400 Total Killed: 15 –Current vessels held by Somali pirates: Vessels: 15 Hostages: 277

• Solutions/Future:
• Contact Group of Piracy Off the Coast of Somalia (CGPS)
• Local capacity building, comprehensive approach, root cause

need to be addressed, pirates are adapting, humanitarian support for seafarers…ICOPAS: http://icopas2011.wmu.se/

MarNIS

• MarNIS (Maritime Navigation Information Services)

– Task / work of WMU

• To develop job profiles and training syllabi for personnel acting as MOS
• perators
• MOS (Maritime Operational Support Service) is a new concept

combining traditional tasks of SAR, VTS and OPRC related tasks

Activities from Present to Future

• ADOPTMAN- (ADvanced Planning for OPTimised Conduction of

Coordinated MANoeuvres in Emergency Situations) – MARTEC project (2010 – 2013) – WMU coordinator, leader – Increase the probability to successfully rescue a person overboard:

• Concept for on-board application
• Human centred presentation needs
• Process analysis
• Adaptation of manoeuvring

assistance to prevailing conditions (ship and environment)

• Impact on standardisation,
• Training requirements, legislation of

IMO-NAV

• On-line HELP and CBT components

TeamSafety: A simulation related project

http://www.team-safety.eu/

• Develop a 3-D interactive

immersive computer based training system for the maritime sector

• Based upon a state of the art

gaming engine with innovative extensions specifically tailored to the needs of maritime safety training.

• enabling the recreation of realistic

maritime emergency response scenarios and the capture of human-human and human- machine interaction and

• allowing true cooperative

interaction between multiple training participants.
